    Summary
    Enables voltage-gated calcium channel activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including intracellular calcium ion homeostasis; neuron projection morphogenesis; and visual perception. Predicted to be located in membrane; perikaryon; and photoreceptor outer segment. Predicted to be part of voltage-gated calcium channel complex. Is expressed in cerebellum and hippocampus. Used to study congenital stationary night blindness 2A. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Aland Island eye disease; X-linked cone-rod dystrophy 3; congenital stationary night blindness; and congenital stationary night blindness 2A. Orthologous to human CACNA1F (calcium voltage-gated channel subunit alpha1 F). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
